Where is the parallel branch a valid selection within a Flow?
I'd like to use a Parallel Branch to initiate an approval for several users, but I need to check a condition first. I can see the option for parallel branch at the beginning of the flow, but I can't seem to make that option appear inside the condition. It seems there are some rules that dictate when you can and when you cannot create a parallel branch. What are those rules?
You can see in my screenshot I have a parallel branch within the 'IF YES' condition. You just can't have it be the first thing in the condition. Which is stupid.
